Hi,

I'm leaving for Kauai in a couple days and I'll be there a week.  I
recently got my NAUI certification and I'd like some recommendations on
Dive companies on Kauai.  I'll be staying on the South Shore at Poipu
but I'll drive anywhere for a good dive.

Thanks,
T

This time of year there is very little good diving off Kaua'i.  However,
there is some excellent hiking along the Na Pali coast.  So bring your dive
gear, but don't expect the world, but also bring you hiking boots and expect
so fantastic views.  And while you are driving toward the Na Pali coast for
your hike, look out at the Island of Ni'ihau, the "Forbidden Isle."  That's
where the real diving is.  You just can't get there this time of year.

Note:  I do not endorse "Bubbles Below."  I' have always found the crew to
be great but the owner to be not so great.

Really?  I found somewhat the opposite.

Now this is what I'd recommend, but you'd have to come back in summer:

the eastside,simin at Hamura Simin in Lihue and the ahi poki at Pono

Safe trip,Pete
